late to the party on this one but got the complete series for X Mas and I may go on record as saying it is the best show ever made. Thoughts?

    Great show. I watched the first 2 seasons a few years ago but finally started back from the beginning and am in the middle of season 4 right now. Yeah, probably my favorite show ever too.

    Lots of people around here like it.

    It's funny because when I first watched it I got really frustrated with season 2 and didnt really like it and that's why I kind of stopped watching for a while. Not that I have watched it again, season 2 is great and I kind of miss those guys.

    It is sensational. Unbelievable to think that a great majority of the actors are British.

    Although I gotta say still nothing on tv has ever come close to Six Feet Under. That is simply the finest written, casted, shot, laugh out loud, cry out loud, heart pulling show theres ever been.

    Best show ever. Puts the Sopranos to shame (and I liked that show as well).

    I found it so crazy that Stringer is really British. That shit boggled my mind when I first heard it.

    i liked it the most cause it showed how many people were truly enrolled in the dope game , that the war on drugs is a fuckin joke ... because if certain things were legal in the U.S. certain public officials wouldnt drive nicer cars or have nicer homes or take vacations

    The opening scene of the 1st episode is awsome, sets the tone for the whole show.

    Genius is a word that is battered around too much but the chessboard scene.....absolute genius.

    Couldn't get into it. I watched the first four or five episodes and found it pretty dull.

    Give me 'The Soprano's' over 'The Wire' any day.
